Whatever it is (or was), I'm pretty sure that at my age it won't have much of an effect on my schedule.

Y'know ... first you ping me for a thread that says asteroids are going to crash into the earth. Then you ping me for a thread that says our galaxy is going to collide with another galaxy. And now THIS! I can't take it any more. I'm going to do my taxes so I can calm my nerves.

Just take an antihistamine "beforehand". ROFL! :)

I cannot wait to see if this is true. I will have to find out for myself hopefully in the next several months. Does this study apply for those that are self gratifying? I need to see this study's materials and methods. I wonder if this is true or just another academic justifying his or her job.

Is there a shortage of new diseases and maladies to study? I mean, why doesn't this Dutch Researcher use his time to curing Cancer, or something a little more important, as opposed to middle aged Dutch Men catching a cold after Sex? Good grief. Luckily for me, I don't get sick often, and that is NOT a correlation to my sex life. My wife and I are healthy and don't forsee this malady on the horizon. 10 bucks it's because the men are bored, or can't perform and don't want to admit the truth. Sick after orgasm... Puhleeeeeze...

ROFL!! Methinks the Dutch shouldn't screw that much with Mary Jane.

I liked your slant. I noticed this doctor did'nt really specify in which regions of the world this is most prevelant. Is he speaking primarally about Dutch men or who? Has anyone heard of this nonsense in the USA? I have'nt. If its just a syndrome in Holland then there will be alot of lesbianism on the rise there.

Waldinger has seen five Dutch men in as many years

That many? Please, five guys in five years and he's calling it a "syndrome".

in his surgery complaining of a range of flu-like symptoms, including a sore throat, sweating, extreme fatigue and eye irritation after sex.

I suppose it is too much to consider that these five guys might have actually been coming down with (gasp) the flu?

[gaspar]

You ever see the skanks that occupy Holland?

Did you know there is erectile tissue inside the nasal cavity? Flu symptoms? Hah! A simple sneeze is the cure. Next time someone sneezes for no apparent reason, think of this.
